I must say: The Scavengers are absolutely f***ing amazing. I cannot count how many times I laughed my head off. And then they actually make them more than comic relief with Grimlock and the Roboids and just... it’s so good. And the characters are just... *chef’s kiss*. Cyclonus especially zips to the high end of my list, especially after saving Tailgate. I genuinely thought Cyclonus was dead and that was probably the closest I’ve come to crying at a character’s death. I also love what they did with Magnus. This concept is so dumb, but, shockingly, it works! And Ravage was amazing. I don’t think I need to explain this one. It’s interesting to see him actually separated from Soundwave for once, and I’m so glad that we actually get to hear him speak. His whole thing of trying to turn Megatron back never felt out of place to me, really. And then his death... I can’t.

As someone who binged MTMTE and LL during a one week vacation, this video pretty much summarises part of why I love the series. James Robert's writing was phenomenal. He gave us the iconic parts of fighting and all that action, but he also gave us highly developed characters that would've otherwise been forgotten. Chromedome, Rewind, Swerve.,., I haven't been a transformer fan for more than three months, and I haven't seen these three in any other Transformers media than MTMTE. But if I haven't read MTMTE, I won't remember them as vividly as I do now. JRO was able to balance dark scenes with humour. Think of the Scavengers. They were lost, stranded and basically scavenging for parts to survive (thus the name). A pretty depressing life. But they also had their funny moments that never subtracted the reality of their situation. They were broken mechs fighting their own demons after the war, but as broken as they were they were still alive and kicking and living life like any normal person. Two artists whose art style stuck with me the most were Alex Milne and Jack Lawrence. Alex Milne was the primary artist in MTMTE and Jack Lawrence worked on LL too. Both of their art styles are amazing. The expressions, the proportions, and of course, the action scenes. Without these two the series will not be the way it is. And the people that helped along the way matter so much too. Without someone to edit the speech bubbles my eyes would've simply wandered off the page.,.,, Because let's face it, sometimes the panels are so small that it's hard to know where to start. And to the people that helped with the colouring, shading, formatting, etc. The entire team that worked on MTMTE and LL did a wonderful job and it's a shame that I can't name all of them. But I'm so grateful that this comic was brought to life. Anyways, thanks for the amazing video!! Sorry for the long ramble >< Edit: I added extra paragraph breaks because everything looked squeezy

I have a couple of issues of the "Dying of The Light" story arc myself (like, mainly just the first two issues). :) -sigh- Boy, do I wish I had more than that from the MTMTE series. Any other IDW comics I have are mainly "Spotlight: Megatron", and a few issues from the "Dark Cybertron" story arc. Any others, I just occasionally research about on TFWiki (so, yeah, I definitely know what happens at the end of "Dying of The Light" - poor Ravage). Still, what I'd give to actually have more of them in my possession. ^^; Anyway, enough about me. XD You're right, Bolt, "More Than Meets The Eye" is far superior to any other comic seasons. :-)

Non reader MTMTE here, but there something Ive questioned since seeing IDW's Transformers? Is Rodimus in the IDW continuity a prime? I only hear people refer to him as Rodimus but sometimes I think Ive seen him with the matrix but Optimus seems to have it at times. Did he start off as Hot Rod at all or did they just beef him up to simply Rodimus? Also that lovely piano music when Eddie starts speaking his piece, anyone know the name?
@DiamondBolt7 жыл бұрын
He was dubbed a "Prime" by Swindle once but has never officially received the title; he just changed his name from Hot Rod to Rodimus. He _does_ have half of the Matrix (Optimus gave it to him) but he's not officially a Prime, no. As for the music, it's called "Steins Gate - Believe Me."

I think MTMTE is the best Transformers anything I've ever seen. I will agree that it's non-conventional plot really helped, and the use of B-team characters likely gave Roberts and his crew a lot of room to play. For the relationship thing, I think why it worked so well is because for the Cybertronians there really wasn't a sense of gender. Fembots were on Caminus, and they similarly had their own relationship structure (from what I can tell) and it never seemed gender defined. They just loved, hated, rivaled, befrended, united, and alienated on a footing of who people were and their attitudes. Also, MTMTE made me love Cyclonus for more than looks, Magnus for more than might, and introduced me to Misfire. I have a Titans Return Misfire on order because of these comics, and I'm struggling to NOT blow a lot of money on Overlord. Controvercial or not, Auto-Megs was a fun contrast to what Star Saber (my favorite Autobot leader), Tyress, and a few current leads like Prowl are: The darker side of the Autobots. Megs turn of world view is a lighter side of the Decepticons: The revolutionary who sought change and progress, ready to risk his men and himself. Granted, the whirlwind of bloodshed was pretty bad, but the worst maelstroms of horror often have a good ideal lost within.

I wasn't into Transformers until 2014 (I watched the movie in 2007 but to me it was just an action movie, I was 7 years old, now I'm 23 lol) when Angry Birds Transformers was announced and released (at that time I was an Angry Birds fan), then with time I learned more and more about this franchise (and still at this day) at the point that I consider myself a regular fan, I enjoyed Transformers Prime, Animated a bit of G1 and other media; one year ago I was playing Earth Was (I still today) and someone recomended me MTMTE and I must admit: I'm not a comic person, I never was, but when I started I couldn't stop, then I continued with RID when I learned that it happens like at the same time And then I discovered that it had previous comics wich I started as "prequels", from Infiltration to the one before MTMTE, I found the comics to read wich were all in order wich is amazing and now I'm reading MTMTE and RID again but the cronological form, I'm about to reach again Dark Cybertron and I will say, now I get most of those references that sometimes are thrown in some numbers, for example names like Verity, or what Spike did, and other things that I didn't know and now I do Btw I love Tailgate and Cyclonus, like, they are from the same era and that makes them closer than they think, and I love Cyclonus as a character, like how he is a nice guy if you take your time and give him a chance

You're exactly right with that comment about toys controlling RiD/TF/OP/whatever. It's a shame because it always starts building up these really good story arcs that rival even MTMTE, then suddenly a big toy event will come along and derail it all. Then it slowly gets back on track before getting massively derailed again.
@TurnAGundam5 жыл бұрын
I can't help but wonder if that's why MTMTE & Lost Light are so good. That maybe Hasbro avoids those two comics on the condition that it gets to influence RID, TF, OP, the other non-MTMTE/LL comics. Just a thought.

So glad I found this vid👍 I couldn't agree more, MTMTE and to some extent LL are the best comics I have read all my life. There is nothing I have ever anticipated more than the new issues every month. I could barely contain the joy as they arrived at my retailer and I could go and pick them up. The crew practically became my family, I love each and every one of them....ok, with a few exceptions, but only because they were utter bastards, like Overlord, Getaway and the DJD. But I still sorta love them since they are so very well written. And I have always had a thing for Megatron but here he became my absolute fave, noone comes near. Roberts have a special skill, he made me care about characters I earlier disliked badly. It was a big surprise for me that I suddenly liked Cyclonus, whom I earlier was unable to take serious at all. And Rodimus...I despised him. Roberts changed that, just like that. He is a genius and a master at his craft. Milne is my artgod, his art is fluent and alive. So my heart broke when this series ended. There is nothing that can fill the void it created. But I am grateful that it exists at all, it was good while it lasted and I read it again and again. Thanks man, you are a wonderful youtuber, with much insight in the subject and I love your humor. Stay safe☺👍

Coming back to this after hearing about idw losing the license saddens me. I pray that we get a show adapting this it’s so good. This comic was one of the few times these characters weren’t just robots but people. And I know there people who don’t like relationships like chromodome and rewind but in the society of cybertorn and what we know it makes sense. I haven’t seen much but from the dubs and videos of the series I have watched it looks like a genuinely fun and unique story with amazing art (like DB said most of the time). I am going to pick this up or buy it on the idw comics app and read it.

mtmte gave me a way to understand and sort out my emotions regarding the attempted suicide of my father. in issue 43 what happened to swerve driving him to the edge of death was very similar to what happened to my father. I use this comic to learn about who I am as a person. I will probably cite this series as one of the greatest influences on my adolescence and allowing me to create bonds with people that will last a lifetime. that is why I love more than meets the eye. and sunder scared the shit out of me.

Roberts is just incredible. His writing is impeccable, from the meta humor through the heart-felt moments all the way to the shocking twists. The first LL arc was a bit weak but I'm confident the story will live up to MTMTE. Speaking of LL, I kinda miss the old art style.

Mtmte was one of the few transformers comics I read, other than spotlight Kup and megatron origins. Its honestly a very compelling story and you feel for the characters and feel what they are feeling. And the characters dont just stay the same they arent all carbon copies, instead they grow and develop and flourish before they're eventually, by one cause of action or one minor screw up, snuffed out. I love these characters and I hope they do the same story telling with the reboot. (Though they screwed up by killing brainstorm, made me sad) I love this series, and honestly my favourite character was Ten, for a guy who only said one word and was designed as a killing machine, changed. He went from mindless soldier to an artist and it nearly killed me when he was eliminated by the spark eaters. Love this comic, love these characters, and I hope I feel the same with the new series
